Asynchronous variational integrators as a mechanical tool for dimensioning thin-shell structures

Yves Weinand, Tudor Ratiu

This is an interdisciplinary research project. This proposal presents research directions in the mechanics of thin-shell and rod theory by using the formalism of discrete mechanics applied to the study of structures in civil engineering. Its aims are to co ...
